No the discs were pressed elsewhere but inventory was moved there for easy shipping. Only vinyls and t-shirts (the few remaining) are still being shipped from italy as it would have been impossible to move the vinyls there at a convenient cost, and i still like to process those orders myself. I hope to find another courier soon to have better shipping prices to far destinations (Australia/Japan/USA) as for Europe, the price is alright. Thanks for the support everyone !

The story about the Green Nuns track is that we discovered it on a DAT, as you will read on the booklet and sent it back to Green Nuns who was super happy about it. We immediately asked to release it but at the same time he also sent it to Japan, and therefore, double licensing happened. We were cool with it as we know Matsuri is a big label and spreads their sound mostly to Japan. For collectors: our track was mastered by AD and their version by KURO, you can chose which one you like best I suggest you own both discs as that is a sweet compilation and also, this is very oldschool, in the 90s a track ended up to many compilations, so we thought it was OK as well!

This review is epic as it is. Thanks for it

If they exit both parties will be very affected, I personally think they'd be mad exiting, but then again, they are bloody Brits aren't they I remember a video where they asked a kid if he'd prefer to have the euro coins and he said NO WAY and when asked why he preferred the Pound he answered "by all means, because it's British.." so who knows what will happen. There was also a funny meme Colin posted on FB about being stuck in an island where kids are obsessed with pigs or something similar. All I wrote above is intended in good fun, no harm meant or offence to anyone, and I do love Brit people, they are so funny sometimes, but good lads in the end.

The cases are very special indeed and are ultra bright neon yellow fluorescent. They may be UV-sensitive but I don't know, they only told me they were hard to come by, super quality sturdy boxes and best heavyweight plastic available. They really feel like the old coloured cases of the 90s and made the whole production price basically double because of them. But i wanted the best of the best for my customers/supporters/fans and of course for my own collection Please take extra care with them as i have ZERO extra cases for replacement, so there is no option for me to help you with that, but since they are so sturdy, unless u drop them hard, it should be fine. Also very happy people already are receiving it!

I have to state that Komix has the CD already as he is the hero shipping all the DAT discs from Poland In any case, CDs have already started to ship, so you should start receiving it next week.

Thanks everyone, and no Joseph, right now it will be only registered for cds it works best for everyone and peace of mind for me too. Also, unbeatable prices!

OK the compilation has been placed on dat webshop for sale and it will be shipped from Poland, as explained. The prices are way better now, also if you want to get a copy from Australia, Japan or the USA. Discs will be shipped during next week (13-17 June) so that most of you shall get it around release date, for the 24th. In the rare odds you'd get it sooner than that, please don't rip it and put it on trackers. Thank You for the support and Enjoy !! PS: the new system is made so that you will have multiple shipping options, however, please if you are ordering the CD, select CD Shipping rates, and not Courier (for LP) or the ones tagged as (T-SHIRT) that are italian post rates for who wants a tee...

Sorry to disappoint mate, only the cds from now on will be shipped from Poland, all the vinyl will be still shipped from italy, can't move those anywhere. However I am trying to see if I can find a better courier. Still I suppose to ship to india it won't be too cheap. But I will try my best to make it work for you.

Doof - Let's Turn On Doof - Mars Needs Women Green Nuns - Rock Bitch Shiva Shidapu - India Spirit (real name/video) Also, that i know were made but unable to find them, there is an official Etnica video from Equator (will digitize it when i go to ibiza someday) and an official prana video too, if i am not mistaken

So, finally the pressing plant shipped the copies to the warehouse and to the distributor I will shift my shipping's from italy to another country to get better prices for customers all over the world. I need a few days to adjust the system and recalculate all the rates but it's safe to say it would be nicer to buy directly from the label from now on. I need also to ship some back stock abroad but it will take a week to finalize it all. Just in time to start the pre-orders of the release I have been listening to the input of my customers and want to offer the best possible service.

아티스트: 강남스타일(Gangnamstyle)

will promptly download the new mix of the KiNG.

very interesting opera, conceptual and mixed, i am intruigued, and as free release? TOP.

Well whoever go this, made a huge bargain. There was the Flippin Bixies cd in there. And to the seller: why didn't you put a few items on sale separately? you would have done a lot more. In any case, rare to see such a lot.

So the CD of VA - Analog Trips are being manufactured and shipped to the distributor in these days, and the release date was set with Arabesque to the 24th of June, the wait isn't long now. Soon there will be more news, regarding new vinyl releases. Let's hope this would be nice news for all that love the format

Cassettes are an interesting media indeed and there is something nice about them. However, some did not stand the test of time and indeed now sound terrible, it happened to me. Especially the 90 minutes one, some seem to sound "slower" and tracks are thus longer than they should be. There is also some frequency cut of course and u can't have the full spectrum as on cd/vinyl but they still are fairly decent. I used to tape a radio transmission in the 90s that played some trance, techno and goa from vinyls, i should rip those and see if some is good

I hope these will ultimately be made on vinyl on blood music but seeing their timetable it may be it will take another year to finally do these...

Why wasn't this artist noticed? This track is freaking good Siam - Mystical elevation

I wonder what would the original creators of this tune feel about it, this track has been released and remixed too many times already with little credit to the original artist. Oh well, that's the scene I guess. The music is somewhat decent but not beyond that.

aBSOLUTELy StuNNiNg Release! The artwork is magical, the mastering works wonder and the music, well it is Morphic Resonance!! As Joske described, this guy is a revelation and has been influenced by the masters of psychedelia to create something unique and wonderful. Enjoy the fruit of his hard work and the passion put through the realization of this fantastic release. Thanks Suntrip and Cristian for the fantastic production.

I also have them got from a user here, otherwise, it would be impossible to have them original. The music was really acid and crazy, they deserve your attention but I think that indeed it is only possible with digital files nowadays.

Abasio, thanks so much for your support, your pack has left already and I'd be thrilled to read your reactions/reviews of the releases you've got for now. In the future, if you'll be buying the mind rewind series, remember that you will be supporting an independent venture, which sales would benefit kids in India, and you'll get amazing goa trance music in return. All the music of the 3 compilations is really great, some jewel that finally got released. More to come

Hello everyone, since there isn't any review of the compilation, I will post my own view of it. I will also share the stories on how this one came to be and how complex was to release it. I am very proud of it, since we worked very hard and the result is really brilliant. I won't speak of mastering as for me this series is really very well done with the audio marvels of Colin OOOD that took the tracks and gave them new life, balancing every aspect and making them sound the best they could. CD1 - Unreleased The opener, Questions by RA, is a real killer, it comes from the original demo of the band, that never saw the light of the day, and although not credited on the sleeve (by mistake) was also produced by Lars Lind. We amended this on the entry on discogs. We then have Jubilation by Dharma 7, a really mystical tune, composed in the heydays of goa trance, and it sounds rough but polished and has a very haunting feeling to it, I really love it. The melody that kicks in also is very well done and takes the track to another dimension. Next we have Alkaloid. This is Sam from the UK (now relocated to Spain) that produced this track a long time ago. But the quality of the music is really there, it has a mega psychedelic apex in the middle, that makes you think you are listening to Etnica and their mayhem of layers, vintage '96. But it is not them! So that is an indicator of the quality of the music, as they are pretty much some of the best producers that ever made music in this genre. It also was found on a DAT tape in the hand of a New Zealand party goers, who had it next to Etnica - Shadow Dance, curiously named as Etnica - No Name. So, I wasn't the only one making this connection with its sound. Shiva Chandra's Atmosphere, was a track found on a tape in possession of Max Etnica, and was grouped together with other tracks of Daniel. The original DAT title was just Daniel - Atmosphere (misspelled as Outmosphere, who knows what the real title was!). Daniel confirmed it to be his tracks, but wanted the title changed to Atmosphere as he could not recall making up that other name. Great track of the past, a bit rough in some parts maybe but that surely deserved to be included. Little Blue Men. Here we go, this is a true bomb. Very fast, hyper psychedelic and I can guarantee that when I played it in a DJ set in Belgium people really lost it. It's absolutely stellar in every possible way and we have to thank the Swedes for allowing us to release this very old track, long forgotten by the authors but highly sought after by many DAT collectors! It took us a while to find a good master copy of Dr Snuggles Dilemma as the band had no tape of this. Dr Snuggles was originally a cartoon character. Magus. Well, who hasn't dreamed of seeing this track finally released? It is a dream come true. If you know the Greek psychedelic scene you also know that this mythical band was playing some of the most intricate, dark, crazy, mind exploding psychedelic tracks ever made. They were real geniuses in the use of mad samples and combined humorous vibes with swirling acid lines. It's an absolute storming track and we have to thank a Greek friend for helping us in getting the authorization from one half of the band. The other half was happy to help, and was already a contact of mine, so it was half easy, half hard. But I am so glad it could finally come out. I want to say that even if the track is called Black Holes (Remix) it's actually a Re Mix, meaning the original mix was just weaker and they rearranged a few elements to make a better final mix, but there is not really an original version of the track, as the other one is very similar but less finished. Opale - Lord of the Minds. Greg is a real psychedelic warrior. His tracks are absolutely stellar. They are dark and very energetic, and this one features a samples taken from Lord of The Rings. He always likes to use samples from movies, and other tracks he has all feature samples from Hollywood productions. But that's just the starting point, he then creates great atmospheres around the tracks filled with acid driven mad lines, curtesy of his collection of analog synths. And we are glad to have him on board with this tune. Wizzy Noise - Pleione. Well, if you were trading unreleased tracks back on mIRC, ICQ, Napster, Soulseek and WinMX in the late 90s you will surely remember how hard was to get your hands on Wizzy Noise tracks. Often called the Pleiadians of Greece they were creating some absolutely mind-blowing tracks and we needed the help of all the Pantheon to be able to release this monster track. Wizzy project is frozen since 2008 and just a miracle and a pro-charity compilation could make it happen. I was really jumping for joy when I heard the good news, everyone should enjoy this jewel as a sacred offering. It probably won't happen again. Blade's Anthropophagi refers to some tribes who practice cannibalism. The concept is of course dark and obscure but the track is absolutely wonderful in terms of creativity. It has some strange solutions in it but we found it pretty original and unique. I want to add that this musician from Montecarlo made his way into various DAT tapes of the 90s as even XP VooDoo was playing his music in his sets and I think this one surely deserved to come out. Mystery Machine is a British project, and this track was liked by Danny Rampling who played it into a radio show. It only got that single air but yet people were looking for this track for a long time! I remember some blokes from up north writing me to thank me because they finally could enjoy this track, complete and in full quality. I also found the sample pretty interesting and even if it sounds a bit trancey I think it has some defined psychedelic moments in it. CD2 - Vinyl Only tracks Kharma - Harmony. This was a project where Blade from CD1 took part, together with some friends they created a track that is absolutely goanish even if it was released into a progressive trance vinyl on a label that was not specifically related to the goa scene. Back in 94-96 in Italy and in many other EU countries we had this scene that was called "progressive" without any other words next to it and in many clubs DJs were playing a mixture of tracks that more than often were on the verge of being goa, alternating them with more commercial and melodic tracks such as Children by Robert Miles that was one of the most famous anthem of the genre together with X-Form, Florian F, Enere and many others. So this track comes from that era and that genre, reminding me of when I was clubbing in '96 on the Italian coast. Awesome times for sure and this track capture that essence perfectly. Doof - Let's Turn On (Tuned-In Mix). This is probably the last vinyl-only track by our dear Doof that was so kind as to license almost every track he has ever made to DAT Records. We think that this mix deserved to come out as it is less known than the original and the recently released 'Desk Mix' which is a magnificent 9 minutes stormer. But this one is not less interesting, it is very hypnotic and a favourite of DJ Solitare who used to play this back in the days in his sets more than often. I also consider this to be a gem of a mix, which can work very well on the dancefloor, surprising a few peeps as it is very little known. Try it, I like it a lot. Ushuaya - 3 Months. I was thrilled when we recorded this one from the tapes. I immediately understood something was different and then I checked. It's the speed and the pitch. We ripped 3 copies of the vinyl and in all of them the length was different, it was a bit off-tune and so we sent this version to Tim himself who confirmed this to be the real deal, that's how the track was composed and how is supposed to sound. So, back when the vinyl was pressed, something went wrong and they released a track which was not at the right speed/pitch. No worries, it was the 90s and it worked wonders anyway, but here for the first time you get the correct speeded track with a fantastic remastering, a real treasure! Hux Flux - Time Slices. Notably one of the best tracks ever made by Dennis. Seriously, just listen to it, it is absolutely crazy. That ghostly effect it's out of this world and the track is a marvel, it is intense, fast and groovy, a real treat. I am so happy we could finally get this baby to CD and although we could not find a DAT master, we ripped several copies of vinyl and the sapient hands of my friend DJ Sunborn, restored and cleaned this track spectacularly. Then the remastering gave it new life and we really have a jewel here. Deviant Electronics - Catacomb. The last vinyl only of the band really deserves to be here, it's a 10 minute majestic composition. It has a cool vibe to it and makes me want to run and jump. It is very well produced and I was really happy to be able to use it for this compilation. I don't know if Zion604 had any plans for it, but we asked and they were happy to let us use it for this compilation. We thank them for this. I am sure you will be happy about this one as much as I were when selecting it. Cosmosis - Emanations. What's there to say? It's Cosmosis!! There is really no need to say much, the master of psychedelia hailing from the UK has done it again with this track and just as in his other famous tunes there are all the elements of a winner track. That feeling that you immediately understand is one of his tracks is present. It's really unmistakable and sooooo aciiiiiid. I really love his sound, it's brilliant and amazing at the same time. Thanks for this one Bilbo! Semsis - Soundvandal. Originally, we had voted for another track, but since the authors could not be found anywhere, we went for the next in line, which was this great track by Semsis. Everyone knows the flip side of this EP and few ever mention this track to my knowledge. However my good friend DJ Solitare used to play it in his set in the 90s and was very happy we finally picked it. Iain was really awesome and so kind to donate this track for the release. Hiscore - Identify. "Do you identify this object?" Now tell me this isn't the craziest track you've ever heard, pretty mental right? I think it is an absolute stormer and although I usually play it a little pitched up for mayhem effect, it works perfectly also at his original speed. I was happy we could find a deal with the band and with the help of a friend I could acquire this song and donate it to the compilation. The sound that emerged with the mastering is really outstanding and we have a true killer here. Gangguru - X-3. I call these guys the French Etnica as their sound is really somehow similar to the sound of my friends back in 1996. The kick they used is also somewhat similar and the melodies are all there, very special project this one. And I am very thrilled to say much more will come from these guys, as I have been speaking with them and we are preparing a full length release. Anyway, this particular track, is really cool and it is mysterious for me how they could not release something back in the 90s as they clearly were much better than a lot of artists who were produced and released. Mysteries. But it's not too late, we will give this music a new life now and this track is a superb example of their technique. Encens - Howl. A super fun track by Marcello who was super cool and donated the track to the cause last minute as we couldn't get the authorization for another track. But hey, this is a real winner, a fabulous track and I love the sample in it. It really is a great track and I am sure a lot will enjoy this vinyl only track that perfectly closes our compilation. Ideally all these stories would have gone into the booklet, but believe it or not we had no time to go through this phase and the graphic solution I invented, hopefully was appreciated by all of you. The photos were taken by me and my friends, and all the vinyl off my collection scanned and retouched as to look like they were 45RPM 7" singles. I hope you liked this idea and that you enjoyed the hard work behind the whole compilation.

Yes I realize what mantra asked, how mars reacted and the lecture of antic. I don't intend to particularly criticize but the use of such words, are for me offensive and that's all i wanted to underline, together with my opinion of waiting until the release is out, which is relevant. It is obvious that anyone, who works for months on a release, is not really happy to hear negative vibes even before the fruit of his labour is out, that's all.
